Love and be Loved Card {Waffle Flower Crafts}

Hello friends,

Waffle Flower Crafts introduced their second release last week and joining the Waffle Flower family of products are 4 stamp sets and 4 die sets. Each of these sets was thoughtfully designed and over the next few weeks, I will be sharing ideas for each of them.

Today, I am sharing a one layer card I created with the Loved Stamp Set. Loved is a set filled with gorgeous and unique floral images that you can use to create your own floral cluster or bouquet.

I have a small confession to share, I have a bit of a black thumb when it comes to floral stamp sets- I just can't seem to get them to work for me. I was delighted to find that the Loved stamp set was super simple to work with. All the images just fit together beautifully.

To start, I created a card from a piece of rustic cream cardstock and stamped the sentiment in the center with black ink. Next I stamped the large leaves in Old Gold ink and the Laurels in Field Greens ink.
I stamped the bow and larger flowers in Sweet Nectar and Butter Bar ink and finally filled in with a few of the smaller floral images.

I filled in a few open spots with clusters of the dot stamp- which I believe is supposed to be a flower center- but it works as a dot too. I tried to keep it pretty loose and organic looking, but these images were so fun to stamp, it was hard to know when to stop!!!
